I recently retired and the IT people transferred by e-
mails and address book to a disc for me. At work we used
Outlook, at home I have Outlook express. I cannot seem to
import the information. It is a pst file. Can anyone
tell me how to do it?

You can't import a PST into Outlook Express.

Uh, yes you can. But MSOutlook must be installed on the computer; the data
in the PST on the HD with the Read-Only attribute removed and active as the
delivery point in Outlook for Express to find it. You can use these
programs to back eachother up (localy).
OExp's standard import wizard... file, import,messages,MSExchange actually
points to the registry stipulated location of MSOutlook's data, be it
exchange or a local PST.

That's not at all the the same thing as importing a PST using Outlook.
That's Outlook Express using Outlook itself to transfer the information.
It's also impossible to do without a legal license for Outlook. The OP said
he doesn't have Outlook, only Outlook Express.

I meant to say that's not at all the same thing as importing a PST using
Outlook Express.
